Public News & Events

A polite reminder that we are strictly TRADE ONLY except on our six open days each year

Sorry to disappoint, but unfortunately we have had to turn away some visitors who wished to look around and purchase plants. We are a Trade Only Nursery and as such our priorities have to be our regular customers. We have Open Days (see side panel for information) where the public can come in and purchase our plants and all are welcome on these days.  We would love to open our doors to everyone but this is not possible, so please do not take it personally. We hope you understand.

Come join us for our Spring Public Open Weekend

The signs are out, the chairs and tables set up, plants are behaving themselves and Jasper the nursery puppy is going bonkers!   We are welcoming all this Saturday and Sunday – including well behaved dogs.  So please bring yourselves, a friend or two and join us to eat cake, drink tea and purchase some of our beautiful plants. (Feel free to bring some clear skies and sunshine too please)

Hot foot it down to us on the 2nd & 3rd September for our last public open weekend of 2017!

Normally a strictly ‘trade only’ nursery, on Saturday 2nd and Sunday 3rd September from 9am-5pm we’re opening our doors to the general public and offering an exclusive opportunity to come and visit our 6 acre site jam packed with plants. Choose from a huge selection of perennials, alpines, grasses, ferns, shrubs and herbs at great prices, with both traditional favourites and many new and desirable varieties.  We’ve got 40 different varieties of Heuchera and Heucherellas to choose from!  When you’re all shopped out, indulge in tea and tasty homemade cakes in the lovely nursery garden and summerhouse! Children and well behaved pooches welcome. We’re only open to the general public 3 times a year, so don’t miss your last opportunity for 2017!! We’re just off the B2027 near Hever Castle.

The Legendary How Green Christmas Quiz!

It’s that time of the year again where we roll out our annual brain teaser – the Legendary How Green Christmas Quiz – to get that grey matter ticking over the Christmas period. Loosen off your belts, relax in your favourite armchair and pour yourself a stiff one!  There are prizes for the best efforts returned to us by January 10th! Find the Christmas Quiz by downloading our latest Plant Availability List from the website Good luck everyone!

We hope our PUBLIC OPEN WEEKENDS will be back in 2022

We are a wholesale nursery, growing and supplying plants to the horticultural professions. However, we also hold a series of open weekends, three times a year, where we open to the general public. These events are usually in April, June and September. 

Unfortunately, due to the Coronavirus pandemic, we were not able to hold these events in 2020/21, but instead held a limited series of pop-up events at the nursery which proved very popular. We hope they will return in some form during 2022.

We also normally host regular talks and group visits throughout the year, but again these have been put on hold for the meantime.
